“Envision kids club support groups: monthly support groups address the needs of youths and teens with visual impairments. Kids club is a collaborative effort between envision and the women of the delta gamma fraternity at wichita state university. Kids club helps our visually impaired youths with social and emotional development, educational instruction in improving skills, and new technology and accessing vision rehabilitation services. Participation in kids club empowers youth experiencing vision loss to bond and build peer support through interacting with other children with vision loss. This empowerment and support network has shown direct benefits in helping cope with vision loss and integrating with their non-disabled peers. Monthly activities let kids be kids without the stigma of a visual impairment, while also allowing envision staff to monitor the progress and needs of each individual child. Ecdc: serving visually impaired and typically developing children in an integrated setting, the goal of the envision child development center is to provide comprehensive early intervention services for children birth through age five. A state-of-the-art childcare facility and preschool, the envision child development center offers a quality education with the goal of maximizing each child's potential. The envision child development center is supported by licensed and certified professionals with expertise in physical and occupational therapies, and orientation and mobility (o&m) and braille. All teachers meet or exceed the requirements set forth by the kansas department of health and environment bureau of child care and health facilities. Eyes 4 others program: eyes 4 others is a unique program bringing regularly sighted and visually impaired children together through the love of reading. Listening or following along to books read aloud by their peers is a special experience for visually impaired children and improves literacy, but the program also benefits the sighted children. In addition to learning tolerance and acceptance of those with disabilities, sighted children experience enhanced reading abilities, empowerment and discipline as they set goals and prepare their reading schedules and altruism as they learn how it feels to give back. Evrc: envision vision rehabilitation center offers comprehensive, state-of-the-art services in one convenient location. Licensed and certified specialists work directly with individuals and their families, building independence and inspiring hope, regardless of their ability to pay. Envision vision rehabilitation center is a clinic with one goal; to help our patients realize their best possible functional vision. We achieve this by combining a comprehensive vision rehabilitation program with adaptive aids, training and resources. We offer a wide variety of vision rehabilitation services and resources to help people who are blind or low vision become more independent. Safely navigating the streets, cooking a meal and handling finances are just some of the daily challenges with which individuals with vision impairments struggle. Music program: music has the power to reach everyone regardless of disability. Research indicates that children with visual impairments often excel at rhythmic work, musical patterns and musical play which can be a valuable tool in assisting other areas of development such as behavior; movement and mobility; language; memory and concept development; mathematics and logic; literacy; and social interaction. The opportunity to experience music is essential in the early years. In fact, according to "music education: not just a frill" by the national organization of parents of blind children, the education consequences of weak musical fundamentals for a visually impaired child can be as devastating as the inability to read or write.
